"When I first heard "IT'S All Real". I had to find out who were these cats rhyming over this DJ Premiere beat. When I found out it was Pitch Black, I had high expectations for this album. Now this album is finally here I'm mad disappointed. These are some hardcore street cats, why is Teddy Riley producing on this album. The beats he produced on are (Geechy, My Life) those tracks really hurt the album. It's like the Lox rhyming over Quincy Jones Beats! These cats lyrics are forreal. But no beats to back em up. Swizz Beats produced 2 tracks (Shake That, N.Y.C.) Those tracks are O.K. Over all it's a O.K. album. They got appearances by Buster Rhymes and Foxy Brown but they didn't help the album any. Once they get better production these cats will be a group to look out for. My overall opinion of this album is 3 stars. I wouldn't tell my boys to run out and get this album."

"After hearing "It's All Real", I knew I had to get this CD. So after 2 months of waiting for this album, I copped it at Best Buy for 6.99, and it was well worth my money. This record dissapoints becasue it doesnt have the same style as "Its All Real". I thought this would be some ill underground record, but it was leaning towards the mainstream, with only a little underground edge. Dissapointing, but good. I love some mainstream sound so it's not horrible, just a different style then I expected. Has a few good tracks, but Premo should of produced more then just 2 cuts. "geechy" is the worst track, while "Its all real" is one of the illest tracks of 2003/2004."

Don't Be A Victim

"I must admit that I had high expectations for this album. After hearing the song and seeing the video for "It's All Real", they really had me believing that they were really going to bring it back to the essence with this album. I mean the song and video were street and it reminded me of a time when hip-hop wasn't all about bling bling, girls, money, cars, etc. But after buying it yesterday for only $6.99, I have to admit they got me. Other than the two premo joints and one other song, I couldn't believe what a waste of my money this was. I mean they did songs songs with Swizz Beats, Busta Rhymes(who by the way hasn't been hip-hop since 1998), Foxy Brown, and Teddy Riley. Nowadays, too many artists try to appeal to too many audiences in one album. Either do hip-hop all out or do the mainstream rap thing all out."
